Default tranny coolers

Just wondering if anybody is running 2 tranny coolers?
I just happen to have 3 new ones and was thinking about using 2 of them with my new tranny.
I figured it cant hurt and if anything should help due to added fluid capacity and cooling abilities.
Any thoughts here would be appreciated.

I dont think it would even be necessary, and I also dont think you will have the room. Unless the coolers are very small and not matched to the size of your tranny, stall, etc....Then well yes of course youd need two..... But thats sloppy, Id try to trade for a bigger single unit that will do the job. Tranny temps shouldnt be too cold either, you want it at least warm so the internals last longer and warm up properly. Much cleaner looking and efficient, not two coolers and all these hoses runnin around. My tranny runs at a good 150-180 in stop and go traffic. Good Luck!!

the ones i have are big enough and i can make two fit pretty easily and clean

i guess i should have stated that im running a big stall that eats 4l60e's for lunch and i just want to make sure that this one doesnt become dinner also being i spent a ton of money on it

Well I would say you cant go wrong with a 24000 gvw cooler...that should be more than plenty cooling capabilities. Coolers of this size are usually recommended for truck with heavy towing and huge *** motor homes.
